having rewatched it 2 days ago i can tell you with Some Precision:
sam’s shaking hands patching up his own bullet wound
dean all faux cheery ‘we’ll laugh about this later sam’ as he extracts the bullet
sam referring dean over to the wounded civilians despite having just been SHOT IN THE STOMACH
dean’s absolute outrage as corbin suggests leaving sam behind
dean ‘i’m going to make him a litter and we are going to CARRY him the rest of the way’ (fan art of this please can you imagine, sam reclining like a gray-faced roman emperor)
sam all shaky-voiced in that cabin ‘you guys go on without me… please…’ so sELF SACRIFICINGGGGGGG sam whyyy
frickadicking corbin chOKING SAM and sam’s face as he does it and the STONE COLD HORROR we all felt as it happened omfg what an amazing episode it was
dean out there in the trees so desperate getting angry with a branch and having to take a moment to compose himself A+ work from Jensen Ackles my man
that moment when you’re anticipating dean getting back to the cabin to find sam dead
dean devil-may-care pouring himself a handful of assorted poisons and knocking them back like tictacs
dean to michelle ‘if the doc can’t bring me back, no hard feelings, okay?’, crinkly-eyed reassuring but DEAD INSIDE ALREADY
dean foaming at the mouth
sam REVIVING WITH A WHEEZING GASP i died
the moment where sam stumbles and falls down the stairs all his legs everywhere SO MUCH HURT SAM
sam casually taking out two werewolves whilst bleeding heavily from the gut
sam’s little relieved collapse against the car once he gets to the impala, it’s like she’s alive and she’s his friend
the moment when dean hears sam’s voice on the phone and his shaky ‘oh thank god’
SAM SHOOTING GODDANG CORBIN like a BOSS
dean so casual ‘took you long enough’ a thin thin facade of cool over a BOILING LAVA VOLCANO of tearful relief
the way sam collapses in the hallway like a puppet with its strings cut
seriously that last moment slays me so bad
the crinkliness of sam’s wan face as he stumbles back to the car at the end of the episode
all the weight of knowledge and familiarity in sam’s question to dean (’what did you do, when you thought i was dead?’), dean’s answer (’i knew you weren’t dead’) (FOOLING NOBODY), and sam’s decision to just let it be
literally this episode by and of itself makes the whole of season 11 worthwhile. they should just have screened this episode every week. it’s like a fanfic come to life. if supernatural went this hard every week i wouldn’t even be able to hold down a job i would have to full time fangirl so hard
YA GIRL JUST BOUGHT HER JARED PHOTO OP FOR PITTCON !!!!!!!!!!!
Sam waits until Dean is in his room, and then double checks that his own door his locked before he dials the number; he knows he could go to Dean and tell him just how awful all this makes him feel, and he knows Dean would listen, but Dean can’t get it– through no fault of Dean’s own– and Sam needs to talk to someone who understands the feeling.
“Samuel, how lovely to hear from you,” Rowena’s voice travels through the phone, hazy and velvet, and Sam has never been happier to hear her voice. He can’t be bothered to heed Dean’s warning that she isn’t their friend; right now she’s what he’s got, and he believes in her anger as much as he believes in his own.
“Rowena,” he says, “please tell me that spell worked.”
There is a long pause on the other end of the line, filled with Sam’s hammering heart and the gentle static fuzz, the anticipation, the fear that never goes away, before he practically hears Rowena’s smile along with the words, “Don’t you worry, Sam– I won’t make his death quick.”
jared could have a 24/7 live feed of his life and i would probably die from sleep deprivation just so i don’t miss him doing something stupid like brushing his teeth or tying his shoe.
